CNAPP Unifying Cloud, Code, Identity, And Workload Security

Cloudanix is a cloud-native application protection platform that consolidates code, cloud infrastructure, workload, identity, and AI agent security onto one asset graph. It sells to CISOs, DevSecOps and platform engineering teams, and IAM staff at companies in fintech, healthcare, retail, managed services, and the public sector, with more than 100 customers reported. The company was founded in 2020, went through Y Combinator's Summer 2021 batch, and operates from Sunnyvale, California and Pune, India.

Onboarding is agentless and takes roughly 30 minutes across AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, Oracle Cloud, and DigitalOcean. From there the platform runs posture management against more than a thousand multi-cloud policies, scans repositories with SAST, software composition analysis, secrets detection, and infrastructure-as-code checks, governs identities with CIEM and just-in-time access, protects containers and virtual machines at runtime, and monitors database activity with real-time masking. Every finding lands on the shared graph.

That correlation is the point of difference: rather than a separate queue per tool, an issue arrives with its context, blast radius, and fix path, including attack-path analysis linking an exposed asset to what it can reach. Newer capability covers governance for coding agents and MCP tools. The platform tracks over a million assets, integrates with Jira, Slack, Teams, PagerDuty, GitHub, and GitLab, holds SOC 2 and ISO 27001, and maps findings to HIPAA, PCI DSS, GDPR, and NIST.
